Tour Overview
Step back more than 3,000 years and witness Egypt’s most awe-inspiring temples without the long overland drive. With Royal, your journey to Abu Simbel begins with a comfortable morning flight from Aswan, taking you above the Nile to one of the most extraordinary sights in southern Egypt.
Upon arrival, a professional Egyptologist guide will lead you through the majestic Great Temple of Ramses II, carved into the cliffs above Lake Nasser. You’ll walk beneath towering statues, explore the legendary battle scenes of Kadesh etched in stone, and stand inside the sanctuary that aligns with the sun twice a year. Just nearby, the Temple of Queen Nefertari, built by Ramses for his beloved wife, offers an equally captivating experience with its detailed reliefs and remarkable symmetry.
This UNESCO-led relocation project in the 1960s saved both temples from submersion, and today, you get to stand before them in all their restored glory.
After your guided exploration, relax as you board your flight back to Aswan, where a private transfer returns you to your hotel.
